The discussion centers on the relationship between absolute zero, mass, and the Higgs field. It is established that interactions with the Higgs field confer mass to particles, rather than increasing their mass. Additionally, the concept of "zero speed" is dismissed as it implies a preferred frame of reference, which does not exist in physics. Therefore, at absolute zero, particles do not experience zero weight due to the inherent properties of mass and motion.
PREREQUISITESPhysicists, students of theoretical physics, and anyone interested in the fundamental principles of mass and motion in the context of quantum mechanics.
First, interactions w/ the Higgs fields don't make things have "more" mass, it makes them have mass. Period.onion3000 said:If interactions with the Higgs field make something have more mass, and if movement creates interactions with the field, then wouldn't something at absolute zero have no weight (zero speed, so no interaction with the Higgs field)?
